Excerpt from An Introduction to the Practice of Nautical Surveying, and the Construction of Sea Charts
With this view, I have ventured to ofl'er to the public a translation of the Treatise of the celebrated French hydrographer, M. Beautemps-beaupré, which was published at Paris, in 1808, under the title of Appendix to the Narrative of rear-a dm'ral Emmy Dentrecasteauz'e Voyage! The author, witho ut entering into a long detail of difl'erent modes of surveying, and examining their respective merits, comes to the point at once, by giving an interesting statement of the methods he himself has adopted in the construction of his C hurts.
